Seemingly never ending Iowa MBB thread (still going.....)

Most of use were pretty sure Jok could score, but what we doubted was that he could carry Iowa to a lot of wins. They are right around the bubble, where we expected them to be.

No ISU fan expected Iowa to be anywhere close to the bubble 2 weeks ago.
 
Including first game loses in the last 3 years to the 11, 12 and 13 seeds.

Bohannon is just two 3FG and 9 assists away from being the 9th freshman EVER to have 150 assists and 75 3FG in their freshman season. Joining Stephon Marbury, D'Angelo Russell, Brandon Knight, Khalid El-Amin etc.

Yep this is Dan. Lol give it up little guy

I'll admit to this. BUT, I also didn't see Maryland and Wisconsin sucking soooo badly either (compared to the past few seasons). Usually you expect to see teams improve throughout the season. This is something I think the Hoks have done - but the rest of the B1G?? - not so much.
 
Yes you did, don't worry you weren't the only cyclone fan to do so just the moist boisterous. If you're as wrong about Bohannon as you were Jok, he'll be a top PG in the nation by the end of his career. It's hard to be THAT wrong, but you've already shown you can do it.

Hawkdom at its finest right there. Live in Cedar Rapids area, I presume? That town has this kind of attitude injected into the residents upon birth, I swear.

I watched Iowa yesterday and last week...Bohannon's not the athlete Jok is. Scrappy little fella though, so there's work to be done to keep him from affecting things.

I'm not sure why teams don't just go right at Iowa on both ends of the court. I caught some of their game vs. Indiana too and it was the same thing. Weird.

Cook's a nice player--quick feet-- and the other post with the headband and chest thumping makes shots but looks like they pulled him off an intramural squad.

You also said Bohannon was an MVC caliber player before he committed to Iowa and ended up being right so I will give you credit there

Agreed, without looking I would guess it is extremely uncommon for a freshman to lead the conference in FG %.
 
2 weeks ago when they were 14-13?

Link?

Sorry. Didn't see your two week qualifier. My original reply was in response to thought on Jok at the beginning of the season, so I went with my early season prediction.

I didn't think Maryland and Wisconsin would **** the bed. No.

Coaching in the Big 10 is not very good. Top coaches want to go to the ACC first and the Big 12 second. Outside of Weber, you can't point to anyone and say they aren't fit for Big 12 coaching at this point.
